Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cartoon depicts a book titled "U.S. Constitution" being pushed aside by a newspaper with the headline "Re-defining America's Global Role." This suggests that the U.S. was forced to focus on redefining its global role after the attacks of September 11, 2001, and the Constitution may have taken a back seat temporarily. A and B are incorrect because there is no evidence in the cartoon to suggest that either the Constitution was considered unimportant or immigration came to a complete halt. C is partially correct in that the U.S. did become more isolated after the attacks, but that is not the main message of the cartoon.
